Calls to `bpf_loop` are replaced with direct loops to avoid
indirection. E.g. the following:
bpf_loop(10, foo, NULL, 0);
Is replaced by equivalent of the following:
for (int i = 0; i < 10; ++i)
foo(i, NULL);
This transformation could be applied when:
- callback is known and does not change during program execution;
- flags passed to `bpf_loop` are always zero.
Inlining logic works as follows:
- During execution simulation function `update_loop_inline_state`
tracks the following information for each `bpf_loop` call
instruction:
- is callback known and constant?
- are flags constant and zero?
- Function `optimize_bpf_loop` increases stack depth for functions
where `bpf_loop` calls can be inlined and invokes `inline_bpf_loop`
to apply the inlining. The additional stack space is used to spill
registers R6, R7 and R8. These registers are used as loop counter,
loop maximal bound and callback context parameter;
Measurements using `benchs/run_bench_bpf_loop.sh` inside QEMU / KVM on
i7-4710HQ CPU show a drop in latency from 14 ns/op to 2 ns/op.
